Youssef bin Alawi bin Abdullah

Youssef bin Alawi bin Abdullah ( Arabic يوسف بن علوي بن عبد الله, DMG Yūsuf b. ʿAlawī b. ʿAbd Allaah ; * 1945 in Salala in the Omani southern province of Dhofar ) is an Omani politician . Although he performs the role of an Omani foreign minister, the business area of the foreign ministry is formally led by Sultan Haitham ibn Tariq .

Youssef bin Alawi was born in Salala in 1945. He studied in Kuwait and then worked for various Kuwaiti companies and government agencies. In August 1970, one month after taking power , he - like many others who had studied and worked abroad during the period of stagnation under the former ruler Sultan Said - was contacted by the new ruler Sultan Qaboos and persuaded to return to Oman. In 1971 he was a member of an Omani confidence-building diplomatic tour to the Arab capitals. He was then sent to the Omani embassy in Beirut , where he became ambassador in July 1973 . In 1974 he became State Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and took over its technical management in 1982. In December 1997 he was finally promoted to the rank of Minister for Foreign Affairs.
